For those of you with 0.5in difference in the rear, the difference would be 0.25in when you have full tank. I wouldn't bother trying to fix it, it's just the weight of our car, unless you do the springmount mod.

I will have to ask the dealer if he did this...

I took mine back to the dealer and had them check it out to see if it was something as simple as rotating the springs. The said they couldnt because they spin them till they lock into place when they install them, So they said they werent able to help me out. I dont have a fat girlfriend, So I put a couple bags of concrete that I had sitting around at my house on the passengar side on the floor. Im going to roll with it for a couple of weeks so see what happens.?
Definitely is about the weight distribution in the car. For those with progressive springs in rear like me is worst. Today i drove like 20 min highway to get my stock 17' wheels replaced for coupe 19". When I got to the place I noticed the weight of the wheels inside of my car leveled the rear springs. So try putting some weight in the higher side for a while.
Dropped on Tein 350Z H-Techs....!
I must have done something right, my garage is perfectly level....I measured
from the floor to the fender lip. Both fronts are 26 1/4" and the back sides
are exactly 1" higher at 27 1/4"! There's not a 1/16" difference between either side, either I'm lucky or the $ I paid for the install/alignment was worth
every dime! There was an inch taken off the bump stops just like the instructions recommend....

these are values "within" specs. I'll probably take the car for re-alignment to get close to nominal values.

ok yesterday i noticed the uneven rear passenger side, earlier today i filled up full tankk and the drop is now even.. wtf. anyways, i was planning to cut the bump stop to even it out and now im thinking if i cut it.. wouldn't it mess up my camber on the right whenever i'm at full tank?

I think full-tank makes a difference in alignment. I did 2 alignments within a month period, one with half tank and another with full tank. With full tank I alignment came out worse.
